Tune: “The Traveler”

Sailing in my boat
out of Subic Bay
I'm traveling in style
My boats the one
for having fun
And I'll beat you by a mile
Hard a'lee
off of Cubi Shoals
And head for Grandé now
if squall winds blow
I'll have you know
Right through them we will go
Haul'em tight
Sail all night
Out off Subic Bay
With lots of girls
in the tropic world
With whom to play all day

Found in an old notebook on an undated, faded sheet of paper. It was written with a mechanical pencil and capitalization and punctuation is as shown. There is no reference to the name of the artist or the album that the song “The Traveler” came from, but I believe it was Walter Forbes’ 1963 “Folk Song Festival” album.
